Privacy Policy.

Last updated: April 2026. This policy explains what data this site collects, how it is used, and your rights. It is intentionally brief.

What is collected

This site does not use analytics, advertising trackers, or third-party cookies. The only data collected is what you voluntarily provide through the contact page—typically your name, email address, and message content.

How it is used

Contact submissions are used solely to respond to your inquiry. Your information is never sold, shared with third parties for marketing purposes, or used to build a user profile.

Hosting & infrastructure

This site is hosted on static hosting infrastructure. Server logs may record standard information such as your IP address, browser type, and requested pages for operational and security purposes. These logs are retained temporarily and are not used to identify individuals.

Cookies

The only cookie used is a small first-party cookie to remember your dark mode preference. It contains no personal data and is not shared with any external service.

Data retention

Contact emails are retained for as long as necessary to complete our conversation, after which they are deleted. If an ongoing working relationship is established, communications may be retained in accordance with standard business records practices.

Your rights

You have the right to access, correct, or delete any personal data you have provided. To make a request, simply send an email with the details. I will respond promptly.

Questions
